Hi

I have found a 6V battery, it was about £100 new, and I haven't used it for ages, can't find a multimeter, but popped the battry charger on it, and it lit up to 60%.

I am sure I stopped using it on the ford as it has a split on the top somewhere. It might still be ok to use as a battery in the garage or something, if you are working on something?

If no one wants it, I will take it to the scrap yard, who I know, he will give me £10 for it. If anyone wants it for a tenner let me know!

Cheers

Dave

Hi

Ok, it is on charge at the moment, so will take it off this evening, and then see what happens.

Cheers

Hi

I took it off charge midd pm, but am struggling to find a multimeter, will put the charger on it to measure it with that tomorow, If you get this message before tomorow morning, I may be coming past you place earlyish to go to wrexham, so if it is good, could drop it in?

Or are you out early, let me know.

Cheers

Dave
